vBadvanced MMO Recruitment Modules Supporting :
Age of Conan, Everquest, Everquest2, Lord of the Rings Online, Vanguard and World of Warcraft, Star Wars Galaxy, Matrix Online, Final Fantasy Online
You should remove the current product and import the new file (not overwrite) for best results.
Some installs require the update template to have $PHP_SELF, some it breaks on. If you get a double URL when updating then remove $PHP_SELF/ from adv_portal_(game)_recruit_updater
Added Age Of Conan Support.
Removed the requirement for numbers in the update fields for some games (LOTR and AOC). I will remove the rest shortly, its a lot of template edits and im out of time for this weekend. (you can put html in the boxes now font colors etc)
Also added beta multigame support.
For this to work you choose the game you want per VBA page as the module so instead of init_recruit.php it would be eq_recruit.php, lotr_recruit.php.
You then need to go to the admin CP and switch to each game you want to use and populate the initial data for it.
The update form works much the same. Put it on a page as per directions below, use the admincp option to switch between games you want to update.
I will be working on multi support more. This is just a beta.
If you changed any of your templates you will need to revert them after the product import!
This is a VBAdvanced add on for the portal home page.. It will display a list of classes you are recruiting for your selected game, it also provides (a now templated) form to update the status, permissions for the form are controlled via group id's (primary group id) in the admin panel.
The zip file has a complete set of instructions for installing and removing the mod.
PLEASE CLICK INSTALL FOR SUPPORT (unless you like cannot install it and need that kind of support)..
Installing the product:
Download recruit.zip from the link provided below.Copy the contents of the upload folder to your forum root, take care not to overwrite directories, but to copy files into them.
Import mmoRecruit.xml from the Product Manager Interface.
Open the settings menu, select your game and submit the form. Once the game is selected choose the last option to import the initial database.
Create the Display vBa CMPS Module:
Add a new module from your vBa CMPS menu, select PHP file as the module type.
Set Module Title to Recruitment or Recruiting or whatever you would like the heading to say.
Select init_recruit.php as the file to include.
Leave Initialize BB Code Parser, Initialize Forum Permissions, Initialize Moderator Cache, Initialize Ignored Users and Clean File Output to no
Chose Use Module Wrapper Template: Yes (this is important, you will break the page with out it)!!
You can set a link for the heading of the module, to point to your recruiting post by filling in Module Link.
Make sure all usergroups are selected and save the form.
You can now add this as a module to any vBa CMPS page.
You will now see the display box on the page you place it on, with each class set to 1. If you do not, go back and check the instructions.
Create the Update vBa CMPS Module:
Add a new module from your vBa CMPS menu, select PHP file as the module type.
Set Module Title to mmoUpdateRecruit.
Select update_recruitment.php as the file to include.
Leave Initialize BB Code Parser, Initialize Forum Permissions, Initialize Moderator Cache, Initialize Ignored Users and Clean File Output to no
Chose Use Module Wrapper Template: Yes (this is important, you will break the page with out it)!!
Set Collapse by default to your preference..
You can now add this as a module to any vBa CMPS page.
Optional (Add AJAX Support to the updater form):
Inside the header OR headerinclude template (where ever your <head> </head> tags exist)
Put: <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.mydomain.com/forum/clientscript/mmoRecruit.js"></script>
The AJAX has been tested on Firefox and IE7, if the requestor code fails the form will just submit normally.
Troubleshooting:
If the product import fails you can still do it by hand.
The templates are in forum_templates directory, the name of the file is the template name that needs to be used.
Creating the SQL Tables by hand.
CREATE TABLE game_rec_settings(
game VARCHAR( 120 ) NOT NULL,
enabled INT(2) NOT NULL,
groups VARCHAR( 12 ) NOT NULL
)ENGINE = MYISAM;
You may need to add the table prefix.
INSERT INTO game_rec_settings(game,enabled,groups)VALUES('','1 ','6,7,5');
Again you may need to include the table prefix
UPDATED:
**Beta MultiGame Support
**Added Age Of Conan Support
**Updated XML typos. pft..
**Added Matrix online, FFO and SWG
**In some cases the game would not be set when updating the table, this should not happen anymore.
**Now supports Lord of the Rings Online.
**Update form can now be set to collapse by default and it will actually stay that way!
**Added (optional)AJAX POST support to the update form.
**Fixed bad XML in product file.
**All modules now use vBa CMPS Shell Module Templates
**Added Everquest Live

I actually wrote this to be pretty modular, adding a new game would be pretty easy. I originally did the Warcraft one, then got requests for others. I figured id save myself some time and make it easy to extend.
so if anyone has a game request, and is willing to provide basic info, i will add it.

Can you run this be run on its own page without vba?
turnipofdoom
06-24-2007, 05:50 PM
Probably not right out of the box. A few files would have to be edited to include some core vbulletin files (global.php for one). The whole system does use templates to build its display, so you could do it since nothing in there is vBa specific.
If you went through the game files you wanted to display and put something like
$cwd=getcwd();
chdir('FORUMROOT');
require_once('global.php');
chdir($cwd);
You would probably get pretty close to it working.

You sure you have the most recent revision ? Without using teh template wrapper for the updater form it "should" break the page since there is no < table > begin and end tags (its handled by the wrapper).
One thing to remember with templates, if you modify one, and then reimport (overwriting) the product, you will have to revert your templates. As far as I know, there is no way for a product to overwrite a customized template.

Turnip - Very interesting hack. Going through the install right now. My only question at this point is regarding all the hidden .svn folders. Are they for anything? There is one in each of the upload folders. Thanks.

Sure that is apart of revision control (Subversion). That is just an easy way for me (or you, if you are proficient with the application) to update to the newest code revision.
If this is all greek to you, then ignore them. they cause no harm. They do not need to be copied into any of the directories..
Sorry for the confusion

06-25-2007, 02:15 PM
Understood.
Sadly, I won't be able to get this hack to work at this time. I'll have to bug my host to update their PHP version.
The following dependencies were not met:
This product is not compatible with version 4.4.6 of PHP. (Compatible starting with 5.0)

What game were you looking to use this for? You "could" covert the files you were specifically using to work with php4..
remove __construct and put classname() as the constructor
change public keywords to var and so on.
I could probably do a quick patch for you, until you were able to get a newer version of php installed.

Thanks, no hurry though.
One small thing I did notice so far. Even though the install failed, the "Game Recruitment" mod still appears in my admin menu. That's no biggy, but I noticed it is listed above the vBulletin Options. I know how to edit my own, but you may want to update it for others. Personally, I like keeping the vBulletin options at the top.

If anything is going to crap out its the object copy, you might need to play with references. But let me know, I am sure we can work it out for ya

That fixed the install problem. I went through the rest of the instructions and set up both modules. I got one error relating to the cls_vanguard_recruit.php file, line 31. I didn't see anything wrong with 31, but I did notice a difference between the cls_vanguard and cls_warcraft file.
Line 24: There was an extra space in the code:
" SELECT
I just removed that and instead received a new error. This one I don't know how to fix.

Ok that SQL error is probably on me.. I will look into it tonight, I have a patch planned to go out.
For table information you have
game_rec_settings..
In there you have the game field, the groups field (comma seperated list of ppl allowed to edit the form), a link (which is not used yet), and enabled (0, or 1)..
you should have one entry in this table, looking something like
+-----------+---------+----------+-------------+
| game | enabled | groups | recruit_url |
+-----------+---------+----------+-------------+
| everquest | 1 | 5,6,7,28 | |
--------------------------------------------------------
the recruitment table has the information for the classes that are being recruited.
its just one entry per class and the value of that entry (installed they are all set to 1).
the display form is not set to use the module shell template. the update form however does need to use the module shell template. it wil take up the entire page w/o it.
to change the heading of the module, that is done inside the template for the display portion of the module. adv_portal_warcraft_recruit. (you will have to revert the template changes if you want to update the product)...
I am unsure why userid is null in your SQL query there. I was grabbing it from $_COOKIE to check if the user had permission to view the update form.. Do you have groups set in the settings page ? groupnumber,groupnumber2,groupnumber3? eh even if you do that value shouldnt be null.. I will look at that tonight, like I said I have a patch to fix some of these issues reported thus far.
turnipofdoom
07-07-2007, 01:50 AM
zip file was updated, this should fix your SQL error above, as well as some template issues all around. additionally we added everquest to the package so people can use it for that now. all templates use the module shell template. so setting a link, collapsing and what not can be set to defaults.

Let me clarify too, that the error only occurs when I add the "Recruitment" module on the portal page. If I remove it, I can see the portal page again.
Also, the module for "Updating Recruitment" causes no issues if I add it to the portal page.

I've seen these parse errors before with GZIP compression or output buffering (ob_begin() calls somewhere else) enabled.
line 26 in all the cls_*_game files is a function definition.
i've gone through the cls files in this zip here to make sure there are no parse errors. Zend Studio and my own web server run these just fine..

Sorry for the late reply. just got a chance to break away to get on the PC.
Yeah, last night when I was up late working on this, I didn't happen to see anything wrong with your code, I was really tired though.
Right now my VB forum has it's GZIP set to 1, enabled, as the default option. I haven't tried installing this addon with it set to 0, but I can give it a try.
I had been uploading the files set on auto from my FTP program, but I can also try that in ascii for the php & other non-image files if you'd prefer.
I'll try that first and if it's no dice, I'll send you the files.

yeah I would start with that, if in fact it is a gzip issue (totally disable it). Then I will look into fixing it, otherwise. I will send ya a new file with some debug print statements and debug_stacktrace() calls to see what is going on.

Alright, just had a chance to try everything with gzip disabled and still no luck. :( I've enclosed all the files (other than the images) that your package contains, from my webhost.
My host is running PHP 4.4.7 with Zend 1.3. If you need any other server info, I can supply that if it would help. For some reason I'm beginning to think it might be some setting my host has setup that's causing the altercation. I'm not extremely savvy on all of that though.

I'm having a small issue, I got everything installed and what appears to be working. I'm using the WoW portion of the hack
Prior to putting in the code for the Ajax when I would try and update the numbers in the Updater after hitting the submit button it would simply load me to my main website page (not the forums, but my default home page). And it would not update the numbers at all, they stayed at 1 for all
After placing in the Ajax code the updater seems to work properly and updates the numbers but those numbers dont reflect in the viewable module for the general public/users. They all still say 1 next to each class.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

After you use the AJAX update form. the values in the form show the updated numbers? but the display module doesnt? you should just have to refresh ;p since AJAX is doing it in the background with no page reload.
unless i am mis-understanding

Now that i had it closed for a while the updater numbers reverted back to all 1's, again i changed it and it said it was updated but the numbers in the public module still wont update.
Refresh still does nothing...

ok, it looks like you are gonna need to change every reference of index.php to portal.php.
there should be one in the adv_portal_warcraft_updater and one in the javascript file.
that should fix your problem, I think.
the template change:
<form method="POST" name="recruitment" id="recruitment" action="$PHP_SELF/index.php?do=recruit_update" onSubmit="postMethod(); return false;">
to
<form method="POST" name="recruitment" id="recruitment" action="$PHP_SELF/portal.php?do=recruit_update" onSubmit="postMethod(); return false;">
and in mmoRecruit.js
var url = "index.php";
to
var url = "portal.php";
this is the cmps_index.php renamed right ?

All the kinks have been worked out! My old / outdated php version & such was the cause of the compatibility problems.
Turnipofdoom, the author, worked with me on it, and got everything to work as it intended on the system. The time he spent helping me and working on this is awesome.
I strongly recommend this addon. Not only is it unique and useful for those running a VB portal for group / mmo gaming, but he provided me with patience & very fast support.
Thanks again Turnip. :)

Thank you so much for the praise.. And it was my pleasure. However lets change he to "she" please =)
But all in all this gave me some ideas to back port this to php4. Which I think I am going to do.

It is a second module, so you need to use the vBa CMPS menu, create a module, and display it on a page.
Instructions for doing so are below Create the Update vBa CMPS Module:

I am not sure I totally follow. There are no user submitted fields. That API returns a characters information if you provide the account key, the API hash (that EVEMON uses), and then your character ID. You get back information like EVEMON would return.
Two things:
I dont ever ask for a users input.
I couldnt release something like this w/o a ton of checking/validation. We are talking someone's account info here (especially if they provide the full access key).

Looks like you might be in safe_mode for php, or some odd restrictions in place.. Do you have shell access to the server? This can probably be fixed, it would just take some troubleshooting... Can you email me the output of
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
and we will see what we can do

well the API waz made for that is a secure acces on character (basic api) so when some on make apply put the API and u track the caharacter skills and that save alot of time and u dont need to request screen shots

I think you're looking for the wrong mod. If you want an application form, you can look at the one here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=150424) or the Form Hack (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=126676) that it's based off of.
This hack is a vBadvanced module that shows what classes are being recruited in an MMO.
Consequently, I've been working on the addition of MxO, FFXI, and SWG per requests. Should be ready for testing soon.

Added SWG, MxO, and FFXI games, fixed some minor bugs in existing templates. Classes were based off what I was given, as I don't play these three MMOs please advise if class structure differs from what I have added.
Enjoy!

Oh yeah I hacked the hell out of the abstracts and moved it all to one warcraft recruit class. I was in the process of moving stuff back to the base class, for extensibility, when I ran out of "free" time and had to get back to real work.

if you are below mysql5 you need to remove ENGINE=MYISAM from the XML and from ap_recruit_functions.php
Also in some cases (i have no idea why) $PHP_SELF is an issue, if it is, you will need to open your template for the game you're using adv_portal_GAME_recruit_updater
change
<form method="POST" name="recruitment" id="recruitment" action="$PHP_SELF/$vba_options[portal_homeurl]?do=recruit_update" onSubmit="postMethod(); return false;">

The issue is that you have your httpd.include file within your conf directory set with a static path for open_basedir. If you edit the httpd.include file and look for the open_basedir statements (usually a few here - apache and php) and remove them, then restart your server, the issue goes away. I would always create a backup before changing this file. :)

I installed it like I were supposed to, but got this up when trying to access my page afterwards.
Anyone know what's wrong? Latest version of vBulletin and CMPS
The issue is you need to edit cls_warcraft_recruit and perform the following:
Find..
function setStatus(array $data)
and change it to
function setStatus($data)
After that, you'll receive an issue on another file as well: recruit_base.php
Find..
abstract public function setStatus(array $data);
and change it to
abstract public function setStatus($data);
That should do it for you.

Actually you shouldn't do that. You need to change it to the homepage + the URL for the cmps page you put it on. So as an example, if you put the update recruitment module on a page called recruitment_updater, in cmps the url would look like such:
yourdomain.com/index.php?pageid=recruitment_updater
So, to properly point the template you would have to change it to (using the page example above):
<form method="POST" name="recruitment" id="recruitment" action="http://www.yoururl.com/index.php?pageid=recruitment_updater&do=recruit_update" onSubmit="postMethod(); return false;">

$vba_options[portal_homeurl] expands to whatever you set your cmps page to (cmps_index.php by default).
$PHP_SELF should expand to http://www.mydomain.com, however there have been problems with this specific variable and I plan to patch and fix it now.
the goal was to not make people edit the templates by hand, since at that point they need to revert if I send an update.

I am not really a "coder", although I got enough PHP/MySQL knowledge to write my own little scripts and config stuff.

Glad this mod really developed nicely! Remember i posted the orginal one with the idea of this some time ago asking if a "real coder" could do a backend? :p
I still use this on my site and it continues to work great ;)
I guess this may be a bit offtopic although it is something similar.
I am looking for a "Raid Progession Module"
You can see what I mean at this website http://www.vodka-guild.com/ left side "raid progression" lists what bosses have been killed. Although i personally would like it to be more like this http://www.brethren-guild.org/index.php with actual boss names.
How hard would something like this take to make with a nice backend that allows you to update the status from a plugin like your Recruitment module does?
Thanks! :D

I had the same problem I added the ajax part and it fixed it.
Optional (Add AJAX Support to the updater form):
Inside the header OR headerinclude template (where ever your <head> </head> tags exist)
Put: <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.mydomain.com/forum/clientscript/mmoRecruit.js"></script>
The AJAX has been tested on Firefox and IE7, if the requestor code fails the form will just submit normally.

When the DN class is released (and any other hero classes as rumors circulate) I will update the mod, for now it's quite some time until even patch 2.4 and even further until the release of WotLK. :)
It'll be awhile. :)

Would take some work, the major coder is out hiking the Appalachian Trail and I'm on my fourth child in four years, so I can take a look at the mod files but between WoW raiding, pregnancy, full-time Mom and doing Site Admin work, it would most likely take some time. I'm STILL trying to wrap up the WoW Progression Mod for everyone as well, been wanting to get that out for awhile and things keep getting in the way. (Looks at stomach and longs to see her feet again...)
I'll do my best, no promises though. <3

Strange, if I change the numbers via ajax to words or anything else they seem to disappear.
The mod was created with a number in mind, instead of text, so that if you put in zero the class no longer shows (smaller space taken up for games like Everquest and Everquest 2, where showing all of the classes takes up a VERY huge space in a side column... since the module was originally created for an EQ2 gaming site.)
The edit the other poster created will work by essentially bypassing that function for games like WoW, where there are minimal classes. Kudos to him for posting that, and thank you, I missed some of the posts in this thread, I apologize, or I'd have posted much sooner. :(

When I try to update the recruiting status the URL that is points to is not working - it is doubling up the link.
http://www.mysite.com/http://www.mysite.com/index.php?do=recruit_update
My index.php is in the root of my site and vB is in a folder called vb. If that makes a difference.
Why is it adding the extra link to it? I am cornfused - and I will say a noob to vBulletin as I just installed it last night. Moving from phpBB3 based portal to vB - and really looking forward to it.

Excellent mod. Is it possible, rather than to display how many of a class you require, to simply display 'Open' or 'Closed'?
Mother_Dee
05-09-2008, 06:29 PM
We coded the old mod (for WoW) that way, and changed it to hide classes if there was a number zero as once we supported some of the more class-heavy games (EQ, EQ2) the list of classes would take an entire column :)
You can change it to show all classes and input text just by going into the adv_portal_(GAME)_recruit template and remove all the conditionals. Then you will be able to input "Closed" or "Open" to your hearts' content. :)
I am eventually (perhaps once this baby is born) going to look into specifications for WoW to perhaps break down the talent trees and allow for an overlib for each spec if a class is recruiting. We'll see. :)

http://www.requiemmassguild.com/vbtest/cmps_index.php
is where you can see it
any ideas
and i cant find where you actually put this
Optional (Add AJAX Support to the updater form):
Inside the header OR headerinclude template (where ever your <head> </head> tags exist)
Put: <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.mydomain.com/forum/clientscript/mmoRecruit.js"></script>
The AJAX has been tested on Firefox and IE7, if the requestor code fails the form will just submit normally.

Ok, i have mine mod'd for AOC but I have a question. The original way this mod is set up is by placing a number (etc.1, 2, 3 or so on). But what I would like is a dropdown list for the admin to place instead of numbers.
A dropdown with:
Open
Closed
Limited
Priority
... and basically have them different colored as well, like below
Open
Closed
Limited
Priority or Priority
Can anyone help?

My forum isnt a guild forum, just a game forum for one specific game. Im looking for something like this that would be used by a number of different guilds.... like a guild database for the game when people are looking for a guild to join.

You can put whatever you want in the update field, not just numbers. I just defaulted them to numbers for giggles.
Nightbloom,
Not really, the database for the recruitment information is shared between games. I have been modding it to allow for several games to run on the same VB/VBA instance, but not for one game shared among several guilds.
Going to also add Age of Conan and Warhammer to it.

The current version that Turnipofdoom has just released is for multiple guilds and games. The only thing is it has only 1 updater for all the games you have. I have it installed on my site. Legend (http://www.guildcommand.com). Thou I dont know if ya can do multiple of the same game.
I do know Turnipofdoom is working on it currently with the final touches.

I'm by no means a coder, but dable in manipulating code for my own purposes. I've been trying to add a class for WoW, the Death Knight, but have been unsucessful in my attempts. Has anyone done this succesfully that wouldn't mind sharing?
aflax045
03-19-2009, 03:17 AM
I'm not sure if there was an update floating around, I looked and could not find one. I edited this to add the Deathknight portion. (I take no credit for any of the actual coding, I merely just made some additions)
It should work, I tested it on my website; included an image for deathknight as well.
I'm not sure if it was just an odd execution, but the following templates did not update automatically and I had to alter them by hand:
adv_portal_warcraft_recruit
adv_portal_warcraft_recruit_updater
There are instructions in a text document in the zipped file in case you have to manually alter the templates.
A working version can be seen here (http://www.parabellumguild.org).
Enjoy.

Tested: vBulletin v3.8.2 + vBadvanced v3.1.0
Installing the product:
Download recruit.zip from the attachment provided below. Copy the contents of the upload folder to your forum root, taking care not to overwrite directories, but to copy files into them.
Import mmoRecruit.xml from the Product Manager Interface.
Open the Game Recruitment menu in your AdminCP, select your game, and submit the form.
Once the game is selected, choose the last option (Populate Initial Game Data) to create and populate the initial game database.
Set the usergroups allowed to view and update your Update vBA CMPS Module (you'll create this in a minute.)
Create the Display vBa CMPS Module:
Add a new module from your vBa CMPS menu, select PHP file as the module type.
Name your module (Recruitment, Recuitment Needs, etc.) This is the module title that your users will see, so be picky!
If you want to link your module name to another page (such as a recruitment post), input your hyperlink under Module Wrapper Template Options - Module Link.
Select init_recruit.php as the file to include.
Leave Initialize BB Code Parser, Initialize Forum Permissions, Initialize Moderator Cache, Initialize Ignored Users and Clean File Output to NO.
Choose Use Module Wrapper Template: Yes (this is important, you will break the page without it!)
Make sure all usergroups are selected and save the form.
Add your module to your destination vBa CMPS page.
You should now see the display box on your destination page, with each class set to the default value of 1. If you do not, go back and check the instructions to make sure you haven't missed any steps.
Create the Update vBa CMPS Module:
Add a new module from your vBa CMPS menu, select PHP file as the module type.
Name your module (Recruitment Update, Update Recruitment, etc.)
Select update_recruitment.php as the file to include.
Leave Initialize BB Code Parser, Initialize Forum Permissions, Initialize Moderator Cache, Initialize Ignored Users and Clean File Output to NO.
Choose Use Module Wrapper Template: Yes (this is important, you will break the page without it!)
Set Collapse by default to your preference.
Make sure you only select usergroups (Example: Guild Leader, Officers and Classleaders) who are allowed to see and update the module and save the form.
Add your module to your destination vBa CMPS page.
Add AJAX Support to the updater form (OPTIONAL):
Inside the header template (or headerinclude, depending on where your <head> </head> tags exist in your default style) put:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.mydomain.com/forum/clientscript/mmoRecruit.js"></script>
The AJAX has been tested on Firefox and IE7, if the requestor code fails the form will just submit normally.
To Uninstall:
Remove both modules from the page they are displayed on inside vBa CMPS.
Delete all uploaded files. (To remove just the Game Recruitment link from your AdminCP, delete cpnav_recruit.xml from includes/xml.)
Run the following SQL query (may need to add a prefix to each table):
DROP TABLE recruitment;
DROP TABLE game_rec_settings;
Troubleshooting:
If the product import fails you can still do it by hand.
The templates are in forum_templates directory, the name of the file is the template name that needs to be used.
Creating the SQL Tables by hand.
CREATE TABLE game_rec_settings(
game VARCHAR( 120 ) NOT NULL,
enabled INT(2) NOT NULL,
groups VARCHAR( 12 ) NOT NULL
)ENGINE = MYISAM;
You may need to add the table prefix.
INSERT INTO game_rec_settings(game,enabled,groups)VALUES('','1 ','6,7,5');
Again you may need to include the table prefix
Changelog
Configuration of permissions "block" (admincp --> Game Recruitment --> Settings) has been removed! It's now controlled by vBadvanced "Module Permissions".
Death Knight class is fully implemented! When you "Populate Inital Game Data (Import Data)" the correct table will be created for the class: Death Knight.
Templates fixed for Death Knight.
Faq
Why did you removed the permissions "block" (admincp --> Game Recruitment --> Settings) to specify wich usergroups can view and update the recruitment feature?
Well I received lot of complains of the Guild Master, Officers and Class Leaders they can't see the update module (feature) on the mainpage.
Sometimes it appear and sometimes its totally disappeared.
I think it's an issue of incompatibility of vBulletin v3.8.2 + vBadvanced v3.1.0 (I installed at the moment of writing)

I am having a strange problem in which a specific user cannot view the "Update Recruitment" panel no matter what I have tried. I created a dummy user with the exact same usergroup membership as this user and the dummy user CAN view the "Update Recruitment" panel. I even went as far as to make the problematic user an ADMIN, and it STILL can't view the panel.
Can anyone offer any suggestions on where to look, or what the problem may be? Perhaps something related to cached permissions or user settings somewhere in the vBulletin database?
This is literally driving me mad!
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Some installs require the update template to have $PHP_SELF, some it breaks on. If you get a double URL when updating then remove $PHP_SELF/ from adv_portal_(game)_recruit_updater
